Not JR's Oly, The Olympia in question was an EON Oly which was destroyed in
the accident that took Leo Boins life following a mid air in the late 70's.
Past issues of AG have some covershots of it at Nationals with Ivan
Theiss(Weisse) i think.
Cheers
Ian Patching.
I will pass on the notice of the event to members of the VGA and one of the
older members of ASGC, Doug Cole. He had the mis fortune to crash a GB 2 at
the club but is still going strong with the Australian Gliding Museum.

Past aircraft that have lived up here are Leigh Buntings Grunau and JR's
Olympia (I think). Are there other gliders still around that lived here?
I believe Phoebus GYB is also still going strong.
